The housing and the display panel 1 are combined as one body. The display device may be a smart phone, tablet, gaming device, augmented reality (Augmented Reality, AR) device, notebook, desktop computing device, wearable device, or the like. For ease of understanding, the following will exemplify a mobile phone using a display device.
Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the display panel 1 shown in fig. 1 at A-A.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the display panel 1 includes a display area 10, a fan-out area 20, and a binding area 30. The fan-out area 20 is laminated on the display area 10 and the binding area 30 are laminated on the display area 10. The binding area 30 is arranged in the same layer as the fan-out area 20. The display area 10 includes a substrate 101, a functional structure layer 102, and a first insulating layer 103, which are stacked in this order. The fan-out region 20 and the binding region 30 are laminated to the first insulating layer 103.
Illustratively, the functional structure layer 102 and the first insulating layer 103 are sequentially laminated on the film surface side of the substrate 101. Since the fan-out region 20 and the binding region 30 are laminated on the first insulating layer 103, the fan-out region 20 and the binding region 30 may be located on the film side of the substrate 101, and on the side of the functional structure layer 102 facing away from the substrate 101.
Illustratively, the substrate 101 may be bare glass. In other embodiments, the substrate 101 may be another transparent substrate such as quartz.
According to the embodiment of the application, the fan-out area 20 and the binding area 30 of the display panel 1 are respectively laminated on the display area 10, so that a non-display area does not exist in the display panel 1, the Source (Source) side and the grid (Gate) side of the display panel 1 are completely frame-free, the screen occupation ratio of the display panel 1 is greatly improved, the screen viewing and operation experience is improved, and the product appearance is beautified.
Fig. 3 is a schematic view of a portion of a wiring structure on the display panel 1 shown in fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a schematic view of another part of the wiring structure on the display panel 1 shown in fig. 1.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the functional structure layer 102 includes a plurality of functional traces. The fan-out area 20 comprises a plurality of electrical connection lines. Binding area 30 includes a plurality of pin terminals. The plurality of electrical connection wires electrically connect the plurality of functional wires to the plurality of pin terminals in a one-to-one correspondence.
Illustratively, the functional wirings include a plurality of Gate lines 11 (Gate lines), a plurality of Data lines 12 (Data lines), a plurality of first power lines 13, and a plurality of second power lines 14. The electrical connection lines comprise a first electrical connection line 21, a second electrical connection line 22, a third electrical connection line 23 and a fourth electrical connection line 24. The pin terminals include a first pin terminal 31, a second pin terminal 32, a third pin terminal 33, and a fourth pin terminal 34.
Illustratively, the first electrical connection line 21 electrically connects the gate line 11 to the first pin terminal 31. The second electrical connection line 22 electrically connects the data line 12 to the second pin terminal 32. The third electrical connection line 23 electrically connects the first power line 13 to the third pin terminal 33. The fourth electrical connection line 24 electrically connects the second power line 14 to the fourth pin terminal 34.
Illustratively, the electrical connection lines are disposed at the same level as the pin terminals. In this way, when the electrical connection line is bound to the lead terminal, it is not necessary to bend in the thickness direction of the display panel 1. The electrical connection wire thus reduces the stress of the electrical connection wire, which is easily damaged. The connection between the electric connection wire and the pin end is not easy to loose.
In addition, the electric connection wire and the pin end are made of a single metal layer, so that short circuit of signals among the electric connection wire, the pin end, the gate line 11, the data line 12, the first power line 13 and the second power line 14 can be avoided.
In addition, the electric connection wire is made of a single layer of metal, so that the space of the pixel unit can be prevented from being compressed by the electric connection wire, and the high resolution of the display panel 1 can be realized.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the display area 10 includes a first side 104a and a third side 104b disposed opposite to each other, and a second side 105a and a fourth side 105b disposed opposite to each other. The first side 104a and the third side 104b are connected between the second side 105a and the fourth side 105b.
Illustratively, the first pin end 31 and the first electrical connection line 21 are proximate to the first side 104a, opposite the third side 104 b.
Illustratively, the first pin end 31 may be connected to the first side 104a.
Illustratively, the second pin end 32, the third pin end 33, the fourth pin end 34, the second electrical connection line 22, the third electrical connection line 23, and the fourth electrical connection line 24 are proximate to the second side 105a, opposite the fourth side 105 b.
Illustratively, the second, third, and fourth pin ends 32, 33, 34 may connect the second side 105a.
It will be appreciated that a portion of the fanout area 20 and the bonding area 30 of the display panel 1 of the embodiments of the present application may be disposed proximate to the first side 104a of the display area 10, and another portion may be disposed proximate to the second side 105a of the display area 10.
The embodiment of the present application provides the first electrical connection line 21 for connecting the gate line 11 near the first side 104a of the display area 10. The first electrical connection line 21 may be led out to the first pin terminal 31 toward the first side 104a of the display panel 1. The second, third and fourth electrical connection lines 22, 23 and 24 for connecting the data line 12, the first and second power lines 13 and 14 are disposed near the second side 105a of the display area 10. The second, third and fourth electrical connection lines 22, 23 and 24 may be led out to the second, third and fourth pin terminals 32, 33 and 34 toward the second side 105a of the display panel 1. In this way, the first electrical connection line 21 and the second electrical connection line 22, the third electrical connection line 23 and the fourth electrical connection line 24 may be arranged separately at different sides. Such a routing design can avoid too dense arrangement of the first electrical connection line 21 and the second electrical connection line 22, the third electrical connection line 23 and the fourth electrical connection line, thereby avoiding confusion of the electrical connection line arrangement and avoiding local overheating of the display panel 1.
Illustratively, the first power line 13 and the second power line are disposed at intervals. The plurality of data lines 12 are arranged between the first power line 13 and the second power line 14. Specifically, the arrangement among the data line 12, the first power line 13, and the second power line 14 may be: every three data lines 12 are arranged at intervals with one first power line 13, and every other three data lines 12 are arranged at intervals with one second power line 14. And so on.
In this way, the plurality of first power lines 13 and the plurality of second power lines 14 can be uniformly arranged among the plurality of data lines 12, so that the driving voltages of all areas inside the display panel 1 are ensured to be consistent, and the problem of uneven display of the display panel 1 is avoided.
As shown in fig. 3, the first electrical connection line 21 may include a first electrical connection section 211 and a second electrical connection section 212 connected to the first electrical connection section 211. The first electrical connection section 211 is electrically connected to the first pin terminal 31. The second electrical connection section 212 is located on a side of the first electrical connection section 211 remote from the first pin end 31. The second electrical connection section 212 is electrically connected to the gate line 11. The length of the second electrical connection section 212 is proportional to the width of the second electrical connection section 212.
It will be appreciated that the lengths of the plurality of first electrical connection lines 21 differ, the longer the length of the first electrical connection line 21, the greater the electrical resistance thereof. This will result in an impedance mismatch between the first electrical connection lines 21 of different lengths. The embodiment of the application ensures the impedance matching between the first electric connection wires 21 with different lengths by changing the width of the second electric connection section 212 of the first electric connection wire 21 so that the length of the second electric connection section 212 is in direct proportion to the width.
In one embodiment, the lengths of the second electrical connection sections 212 of any two first electrical connection lines 21 are respectively a first length (L1) and a second length (L2). The line width of the second electrical connection section 212 having the first length is the first line width (W1). The line width of the two electric connection sections with the second length is the second line width (W2). If L1 > L2, the relationship between W1 and W2 satisfies: w1 > W2, and l1×w2=l2×w1.
As shown in fig. 4, the second electrical connection line 22, the third electrical connection line 23, and the fourth electrical connection line 24 may each include a first electrical connection section and a second electrical connection section. The arrangement of the second electrical connection sections of the second electrical connection line 22, the third electrical connection line 23 and the fourth electrical connection line 24 can be referred to as the arrangement of the second electrical connection section 212 of the first electrical connection line 21. Specifically, the description is not repeated here.

As shown in fig. 5, the gate line 11 may be exemplarily disposed perpendicular to the first side 104a of the display panel 1. The data line 12, the first power line 13, and the second power line 14 may be disposed perpendicular to the second side 105a of the display panel 1.

The first pin, the second pin end 32, the third pin end 33 and the fourth pin end 34 are connected to the same side of the display panel 1. It is understood that the fan-out area 20 and the binding area 30 of the display panel 1 according to the embodiment of the present application may be disposed near the second side 105a of the display area 10.
